McKenzie (5’7/173) made only 60 career catches as just an 11-game starter at wide receiver, but he showed electrifying special teams ability with six return scores, five on punts and one on a kickoff. After blazing 4.42 at the Combine, McKenzie was called the quickest prospect in the entire 2017 draft by ESPN’s Todd McShay. McKenzie’s offensive potential is nearly nonexistent at his size, but he is one of the top pure return men in this year’s draft. Sat, Apr 29, 2017 03:23:00 PM

Georgia WR Isaiah McKenzie told reporters at his pro day workout that one reason he decided to enter the NFL Draft early was an academic issue.

That issue would've required an appeal and would have forced him out of spring practices. McKenzie opted to stand on his 40-yard dash of 4.42 at the NFL Combine. He worked with the Falcons staff on punt returns. Thu, Mar 16, 2017 02:59:00 PM

Georgia junior WR Isaiah McKenzie will forego his final season of collegiate eligibility to enter the 2017 NFL Draft.

McKenzie didn't take long to announce his NFL jump, as Georgia just beat TCU 31-13 in the Liberty Bowl. McKenzie led the Bulldogs with four catches for 100 yards in that one to put a bow on a 2016 season in which he logged a 44-630-7 receiving line. He also turned in 23 punt returns for 255 yards and a touchdown. The 5-foot-8, 164-pound speedster has six return touchdowns for his career. That added dynamic should draw some interest from the NFL, but it would be unlikely he hears his name called until Day 3 at best. McKenzie said that he has not received feedback from the NFL Draft Advisory Committee as of yet. Fri, Dec 30, 2016 04:47:00 PM

And neither came on a reception. McKenzie got going early, scoring on a 55-yard run on Georgia's first play. Not long after, midway through the first quarter, he added an 82-yard punt return touchdown. And with that, he set two school records, career punt return touchdowns (5) and overall kick return touchdown (6). The 5-foot-8, 164-pounder appeals to the NFL as a slot receiver and return man.
